Core work :
Very often, learning dysfunctions result from emotional stress at the time of learning, creating a stress so intense that the individual will program a blind spot to a given learning skill.
Except when caused by actual physical trauma to brain tissue, dyslexia might result from a denial that learning is possible in a specific area of life experience.
During the sessions, we would look at "re-programming" the alphabet and numbers into the brain in a calm and relaxed environment but would also "defuse" the stress of past events causing these blocages in the brain hemispheres where learning take place.
This program also works on a self image level aiming to change the negative self image. Through muscle testing (Kinesiology, a non-invasive, gentle technique) we identify the stressor causing the negative self image and clear the emotion from that past experience.
Nutritional advice will be given on how to keep the brain fed with the right foods and the physical and mental effects of dehydration.
Secondary schools and Uni level :
Secondary school students and Uni students are getting extra time @ exams, special laptops, and can get students helpers to take notes. But what happens to them when they leave the education system? Who will keep helping them?
This program would help them become self-supporting and not overly dependent on support services. It would enable students to overcome some of the dyslexic obstacles such as high level of stress, lack of writing and reading confidence, poor fluency of expression.
According to the feedback and testimonials, this program is also allowing the students to boost their confidence, manage their own recklessness, moodiness, aggression and emotional frustration which is leading them to a more peaceful and happy life.
